Hi everyone,
Just ended our National Show. The angus breed was judge by Jack Ward, the Herefords by Jack Holden and the jersey and Holsteins by Patrick Maddox. All of them from the States.
Before the Show Jack Ward and Jack Holden went to Kiyu farm. Here every year many hereford breeders donate some year old calfs. They spent all together only on grass and one year after, when they are two year old, they are judge and seen their performance every condition being equal, I repeat only grass and water. At the end of the year, an auction takes place and every bull is sold, so if the real owner want to keep his animal he must bid among the rest.
Pictures at the Uruguayan Hereford Assosciation farm KIYU.
Well, now at the show. The following pictures were taken before the Show, the ones from the jury I will post them later.
The field where the animals are judge..
Some horses
This red angus bull was finally chosen by Jack Ward as the Great Champion 2009.
The Champ name is "Conde". I took the pictures the day before the jury.
This bull belongs to the same breeder that won last year championship with the bull Capitán, do you remember him ?
One night with some breeders we made some "home made ice cream" at the ABS booth :lol:
We use some nitrogen, some cream, sugar, fruit pulp.....and whiskey !!!! :cboy:
Well, nothing more, I just hope not to have bored you too much with my pictures.
Bye
Lorenzo
